When you spend this much time at work, why is it any less welcoming than your home? I'll tell you why... we have this idea of an office and it should be all of these things: professional, neutral and focused on work.

Here are 3 quick ways you can make your work space better right now.

When we started looking for an Assistant Designer for the Studio and a Boutique Manager for DOMAIN, we had the highest hopes of finding a unicorn... Someone who was personable, artistic, optimistic, creative, smart, organized, diligent and outgoing enough to manage our shop but also able to multi-task and work with us on design projects. And, maybe most importantly, had a great sense of humor with the ability to find the good in almost any situation. We nicknamed this person our unicorn since it seemed that having all of these traits in one person was perhaps a little too aspirational.

You're on our list! We're so grateful to our design clients, DOMAIN customers (it's our 6-month anniversary!), family and friends for a fabulous year so we want to toast you at our Happy Holiday Hour … and now check out our top tips for gifting…

How can you possibly find time for everything you want to do? The answer, of course, is balance. Finding time for all of the things you have to do plus all of the things you want to do is a delicate balance, and having a functional (and beautiful) home supports that balance. Everything you do all day is that much easier when your starting and ending point is intentionally customized to your lifestyle. We love to create moments for spontaneous joy, from treasured photos to fresh flowers, so that your home can support you and make that balancing act just a little easier.
